This might also help you but realize you've just scored the "hens teeth" part of our bump era trucks! :eek:

Hey guys,Thanks quite familiar with the rariety of them never thought I would see one in person let alone own own one I knew it would be an uphill battle to find the inner fender and brackets but once I saw it run I could not pass it up!! the guy that had it pulled it out of a truck in a salvage yard in the 90s and mounted kt to a cart and used it to power his fridge when power went out I am going to check the salvage yard but I am sure the truck has been crushed by now been riding around with it in my van figuring out hown to come up with a good explaination on what it is :lol: Wade

I have the inner fender you need. Been hanging onto it as a conversation piece for years now, but figured somebody someday would want it. I can get pics if you're interested, it's in my storage unit so it might be a couple days.

Awesome find! Sounds like you may have found an inner fender with Kieth. If that doesn't work out though, let me know. I have a generator inner fender as well. I can provide pictures if you would like. Just let me know.
